About Bella
Looking for a special someone who will open their heart and home to this special little lady.
Bella is a nearly 3 year old Toy Poodle who is looking for a home that understands her high energy level as well as her anxiety.
If you are still reading, and we truly hope you are as this little lady is worth it!
This gorgeous lady has been observed in a foster carers home for some time, so we do know the requirements she needs in a future family to ensure she continues to thrive.
Bella has come into care with some anxiety - as a result it will take her a few days to really settle into her new home however please don’t mistake her for being a shy little one – Bella is what some people would call a energizer bunny and is go, go, go.
Bella is an enthusiastic and affectionate dog who loves to show her excitement by greeting her humans with lots of happy barks and excited leaping. While this behavior is adorable, we have been working on her settling down and being a bit less vocal at greeting time and her new family will either be so in love with it, it won’t matter or they will continue with her settling.
Bella would also love someone who can help build her confidence when meeting new people for the first time.
Bella is a sweet-natured dog who enjoys nothing more than spending time with her humans, getting lots of belly rubs, and snuggling up close at the end of the day.
Bella has come into care thru no fault of anyone’s just unfortunately circumstances meaning she needs a home where there are children either over the age of 8 or older or in a home with no children at all. Bella is not aggressive, however she can get scared around small children, which is why we want to make sure that she finds a safe and secure environment where she can thrive.
Bella is toilet trained, but may need a few days to settle in and get her routine and surroundings sorted.
Bella is looking for a home where someone is home more often than not, works from home or is a homebody – this is not negotiable for her.
Bella is currently with another small breed dog (and chickens) but would be more than happy as an only fur child and have all the attention or if another small breed dog, one that is not dominant or in her face.
Bella is a gorgeous little girl but she very much wants to be with her humans most of the time – be a huge part of their lives and active in it.
Bella loves to chew up toys that are provided too her after she has had a small play – so for anyone who loves shopping at Kmart Bella is definitely your excuse!
Once Bella is comfortable and feeling secure in her home and she does come for pats and cuddles then you will be her best friend for life! She will happily follow you around wherever you go in the house or out in the yard (she is a shadow and her humans must be able to accept that).
Bella is a special dog who deserves a loving and caring home where she can receive all the love and attention she needs. She is intelligent and we are confident she will respond well to patient and gentle reward-based training.
Bella does have a coat that require grooming so please keep this in mind when applying as it’s an ongoing expense.
Bella loves to sleep in her dog bed at night or will happy fall asleep on the couch, but she will probably not say no to sleeping with her humans once settled.
If you're looking for a sweet and affectionate companion who will brighten up your days with her playful antics, Bella is the dog for you. So, if you're ready to welcome Bella into your home, please don't hesitate to send thru an adoption application

Adoption details
Paw Prints Canine Rescue is a non for profit dog rescue located in Southeast Queensland.
All our dogs leave our care with full vet work (up-to-date vaccinated, microchipped, desexed, heart worm and intestinal wormed and flea treated).
Please note - They will not leave for their new homes until they are 12 weeks of age and have been desexed, micro-chipped and vaccinated up to date.
Please note - we are not a pound or have kennels - all our dogs stay in foster carers homes and therefore dogs are not able to be simply viewed - only approved applicants will meet the dogs.
Please Note: We do not hold any animals so please only apply if you are ready to adopt now
Please note - We don't take calls on adoption enquiries - an application must be completed

Once an adoption enquiry is completed our admin team will assess the application and if successful we will arrange for a meet and greet to be completed. We may also request photos of your yard for consideration of your application. Please note that we will do no more than 3 meet and greets per dog.
Approved applicants will be contacted to arrange a time for a meet & greet via email. You must bring your current dog along to the meeting if you are meeting another dog/puppy, this is to ensure they get along before commencing adoption - proof of your dogs up-to-date vaccination is required before any meet and greet is arranged.
Our adoption fee must be cleared in our bank account before any animal is available for pick up. Please note we bank with ANZ - any other bank may take 48 hours to process the monies.
Paw Prints Canine Rescue has a 10 day trial period – this basically means that if for any reason the adoption does not work out and the dog needs to be returned to us, the adoption fee minus an admin fee (minimum is $100) will be returned to the adoptees via bank transfer within 7 working days.
Please note that if an interstate adoption needs to be returned or regional adoption all transport cost with be paid by the adopter.
Please also note while this can be a very exciting time for everyone, it can also be an overwhelming time for dogs and we ask that you do try and allow your new family member to settle in their new home and adjust
INTERSTATE ADOPTIONS **
Any transport costs are to be paid by the adopting family, however we can assist you in helping with transport to airports etc.
** Please note some of our dogs are not available for interstate adoption
AFTER THE TRIAL PERIOD
After the 10 day trial period is completed Paw Prints Canine will send out all relevant paperwork for your new furbaby via email including the transfer of microchip form.
